Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Myocardial injury may complicate allergic reactions caused by several medications. We evaluated a case of a myocardial injury with transient ST segment elevation in a 72 year-old man presenting with collapse caused by sulbactam-ampicilllin assumption. The purpose of this report is to present this interesting case and revise the classification of Kounis syndrome.
